French Allure

Recently I made two purchases at MAC and after using the prodcuts for over a week, I want to give you my review!

First, I bought the matte lipstick in Honeylove. I love the pinky-peach color which is like the natural color of my lips, only better. The matte texture is not too drying as many lipstick of the same type. A negative point would be that because the color is pale and it’s a matte finish, this tends to accentuate fine lines and dry lips. It is best to exfoliate lips and apply some lip balm before. The hold is good enough in itself, but if you speak a lot like me, you’ll have to reapply it several times.

Then, I bought the Pro Longwear concealer in NW20. The clerk advised me that color because the peachy color counterbalances my dark circles. The concealer provides a nice coverage and it can be applied with a brush or with fingers as I do. It is possible to apply 2 layers but you have to blend well because otherwise it becomes too thick. I won’t be buying this product in the future, for the price, I think the packaging is not practical. I don’t like the fact that there is no brush, but rather a small pump to extract the product. This causes too much concealer to come out every time I press the pump. It is wasteful and it becomes too messy!
